La Bajada Hill

La Bajada Hill is part of the original Route 66 and the Spanish Colonial road Camino Real leading into Santa Fe. By far, the mesa’s most defining feature is at its southwest edge, where the volcanic escarpment upon which the mesa sits towers high over the plains below. Appropriately known as La Bajada (The Descent), the overlook is one of New Mexico’s most spectacular natural landmarks.

Abstract landscape of the colorful and seemingly endless mesas and the layers of colors in Northern New Mexico. The buttes and mesas have a towering presence above the plains with an immense sky above.

Another  series of  watercolors working to achieve a minimalist feel. A fun way to bust loose and explore with watercolors using quick strokes with a Japanese writing brush on rough watercolor paper.  24" x  18" image size, unframed without matting
